I can't believe I didn't think of the symmetrical look . Duh. I'm tired. But i read your idea in time and am now sewing it on symmetrically. Thanks . (Still smh)

You are right in that flannel will feel softer and warmer against the skin than regular quilting cotton. So if you want to use all flannel on the back, you can either use all one type (pieced) or mix and match flannels for a more artistic back. Your recipient will love and appreciate whatever you do!! ;o)
